After Huang Shuang finished speaking, he looked at Huang Yingyun and waited for him to make a statement, Huang Yingyun shook his pole and said, "Go on." Huang Shuang nodded and said, "So my grandson thinks that it's good if my grandson is the only one who goes over to visit, and Ning Hou shouldn't have too much heart to meet too many people." ”

Huang Yingyun nodded, then sighed and said, "Shuang'er, you are smart, but you still don't understand this." Hearing this, Huang Shuang hurriedly got up and said, "Please teach your grandfather." ”

Huang Yingyun smiled and said, "Sit down and say." Huang Shuang sat down crampedly, his buttocks were only half next to the embroidered stool, and he leaned sideways to indicate that he was listening to his grandfather's teachings.

Huang Yingyun smiled: "It's actually very simple, you're right, I guess that kid from the Jia family didn't have the heart to stay in Yangzhou for too long, but it's not all because of military affairs, it's just superficial work............"

Huang Yingyun said with a slight smile with his eyes narrowed: "The most important thing is that he doesn't want to get involved in the mess of Yangzhou Mansion!" ”

Huang Shuang suddenly said when he heard this: "Grandfather, do you mean that Ning Hou is afraid that we will drag him into the Yangzhou Mansion?" ”

The salt merchants in Yangzhou Mansion have been a little too jumpy recently, first provoking the Cao Gang, and then seeing that Beizhili and Henan are not stopping this year, the salt merchants have also moved their minds, on the one hand, they want to take this opportunity to make a big profit, and on the other hand, they are also afraid that the court will make fun of them...............

Since Emperor Yongxi ascended the throne, perhaps he had tasted the sweetness when he was in charge of the household department, and the salt merchant was simply handy! As long as there is a little bit of money needed, he will directly support Lin Ruhai's mad dog to loot, which will make the salt merchants miserable!

So this time they will definitely not be slaughtered again! They want to show their intentions to the court! They can pay taxes to the court, and they can donate money to the court, but only if they are happy!

Therefore, the salt merchants have been stirring up trouble recently and have made trouble several times, and the situation in Yangzhou City has indeed been a little dark recently.

But............

Huang Shuang looked at Huang Yingyun with some puzzlement and said, "Grandfather, as far as I know, our Lord Lianghuai Yanzheng Yu Shi Lin Ruhailin is a relative of that Ning Hou?" ”

Huang Yingyun nodded with a smile and said, "The concubine of Rongguo Mansion is the wife of Lord Lin, alas............ When Mrs. Lin died, you were still young, and at that time, Yangzhou City had already set off a bloody storm that was even more tense than now............"

Although Huang Shuang didn't know what Huang Yingyun was talking about, since he mentioned Lin Ruhai's deceased wife, and talked about it at that time, he thought that Lin Ruhai's wife's early death should have a lot to do with the salt merchants in Yangzhou............

Of course, Yangzhou salt merchants are monolithic externally, but internally, they are not the same as everyone wearing a pair of pants, and there are also disputes and disagreements.

Yangzhou salt merchants are now divided into Jin merchants and Hui merchants in the big concept, Jin merchants occupy most of the seats, among the eight salt merchants, only the Zheng family and the Jiang family are Hui merchants, and the others are Jin merchants, including the Huang family.

Although Huang Yingyun is a native of Beizhili, and he really started in the salt industry in Zhejiang, he still joined the Jinshang Group. Running a single gang is never a big deal!

Even if it is the Xue family, they are not without a merchant gang, but the Xue family has an extraordinary background, so they belong to the imperial merchant gang and are mainly used to serve the royal family, so they are proud and not with these ordinary merchant gangs, and these merchant gangs do not dare to provoke the imperial merchants casually.

At this time, at least in the salt industry, the Jin merchants occupy an absolute advantage, and the Jin merchants also have internal differences, led by the Huang family, think that they can't do it with the imperial court, and should actively cooperate with the two Huai salt political history, as long as the imperial court doesn't go too far, let's admit it.

Hui businessmen are weak, and Hui businessmen have always implemented this concept, everyone is friendly and wealthy, and is it not good to be stable and law-abiding? Therefore, the Zheng family and the Jiang family also chose to stand on the side of the Huang family.

And this concept is obviously difficult to win the approval of the other five families led by the Bai family, so according to what you say, is it that we have to give what the imperial court wants? Aren't we just fish on the knife board? There is no end to man's greed!

If we don't show off our muscles and don't let the court know the power of the salt merchants, the court will only loot us more and more fiercely! We don't know the faces of those officials in the court, the hard-earned money is so cheap for them?

It's a fool to do this loss-making deal!

Because of this, the Huang family and others have not made a move in some recent matters, although the other five families such as the Bai family have not said anything, but it is obvious that they have begun to be dissatisfied with the Huang family because of this matter!

Huang Yingyun looked at the buoys rising and falling in the distance, but he didn't have the heart to move the pole, but sighed slowly in his heart, it seems that it has been a few days since An's birthday............

Huang Shuang couldn't help but say tentatively when he saw his grandfather's appearance: "Grandfather, do you mean that it is possible for Ning Hou to meddle in the affairs of Yangzhou City?" ”

Huang Yingjun didn't answer him immediately, but just asked rhetorically, "What do you think?" Huang Shuang thought for a moment and said, "Grandson thought it wouldn't be." ”

Huang Yingyun still said with a surging expression: "Oh? Why? Huang Shuang groaned: "Sun Er thinks that first, Ninghou has military affairs, I'm afraid he won't stay in Yangzhou for a long time, and second, even if Ninghou has no official business, he just came to Yangzhou City to play, I'm afraid he won't meddle in Yangzhou City's affairs casually." ”

Huang Yingyun didn't agree or deny, but said to Huang Shuang: "What else? Huang Shuang continued: "Ning Hou is not a reckless person, and he will not act rashly when he has not yet learned the real situation in Yangzhou City, so Ning Hou is even a salt merchant in Yangzhou............ He is haunted by his aunt's death, holds a grudge, and will not act rashly. ”

Huang Shuang groaned: "If I were Ning Hou, I would never pick such a time to attack the salt merchants in such a chaotic situation, this is likely to cause great damage to myself, and when the time comes, killing a thousand enemies and losing eight hundred will really outweigh the losses!" Besides............"

Huang Shuang glanced at Huang Yingyun and said: "That Mr. Zhou is in our Yangzhou City at this time, and that person can now be called a living saint, I heard that Ning Hou has taken care of him, and with him, I'm afraid ............ wouldn't ask Ning Hou to do anything out of the ordinary. ”

Speaking of which, even Huang Shuang couldn't help but be a little envious and jealous, on the day Zhou Huan came to Yangzhou City, how many scholars in Yangzhou City were going crazy, and they all wanted to kneel down to greet him!

Of course, Huang Shuang was also included, but Zhou Huan had already announced to the public that he was not very good at teaching students, so there was only one disciple, and he would not accept any more disciples from now on, which completely broke the thoughts of Huang Shuang and these scholars............

After all, who wouldn't want to become a saint's protégé? Zhou Huan is destined to be a character who can be offered into the Confucian Temple and become his disciple, and he must not be as famous as the seventy-two sages of Confucius?

Huang Shuang didn't think so, but he also wanted to learn from Zhou Huan, Zhou Huan, a person who has understood Confucianism thoroughly, will push through the old and introduce his own theories, so Huang Shuang wants to learn from Zhou Huan for more than a day or two, but it's a pity that people have been vaccinated early, and they will never accept apprentices from now on!

Huang Shuang doesn't envy Jia Jing's both civil and military affairs, he doesn't envy Jia Jing's young fame and high position, and he doesn't even envy Jia Jing's holy scroll How many talented women and beauties are in love, only this is the only thing, Jia Jing has a good teacher, so Huang Shuang is envy and jealousy!

Huang Yingyun saw Huang Shuang's thoughts, and couldn't help laughing again, Huang Shuang looked at Huang Yingyun helplessly, Huang Yingyun breathed a sigh of relief and said to Huang Shuang: "What you said is right, it can be seen that you are really thinking, okay, this is good!" ”

Huang Shuang smiled embarrassedly: "There must be something I didn't expect, please point it out to me." ”

Huang Yingyun said with a smile: "There is nothing to point out, you are right, the kid of the Jia family will not meddle in the affairs of Yangzhou City casually, so those people who are rushing to test him today can be regarded as a false calculation!" ”

Huang Yingyun said with a smile: "You're right, Zhou Huan is a person with great skills, and at least he has studied the world very thoroughly, so he will stop the Jia family kid, but this is not the main reason, and in the end it has to come back to him!" ”

Huang Yingyun put down the bamboo pole in his hand, clapped his hands and prepared to get up, Huang Shuang hurriedly stepped forward to help, Huang Yingyun walked to the other side and looked at the scenery in the garden and smiled at Huang Shuang: "If you want to understand a person like Jia Jing, you must first understand what battles he has fought, if you know how he uses soldiers, will you not know how he plays chess?" ”

Huang Shuang heard that he knew that Huang Yingyun was teaching him how to play against these characters, so he hurriedly pricked up his ears and listened, Huang Yingyun took the small porcelain bowl on the side, grabbed the fish food inside and threw it into the distance.

Huang Yingyun sprinkled while continuing: "I also had a relationship with Jia Jing, and I was the emperor at that time............ Alas, when Emperor Taizong was still there, he invited me to his old man's Qianqiu banquet, and I saw him in the crowd making a big fuss and the banquet was extremely arrogant! ”

Huang Yingyun said as he walked: "I was surprised for a moment before I asked who this person was, but it was this Jia family boy, I heard that Emperor Taizong was extremely honored and favored this person at that time, I was quite surprised, this person was reckless and arrogant, and he was clearly ruthless and vindictive, why would Emperor Taizong like such a person?" ”

Huang Shuang was also quite surprised when he heard this, it turned out that Jia Jing had such a period of time? Can't stop? How can I hear what my grandfather said seems to be quite different from the rumors, and it can't be untrue like this!

Huang Yingyun said with fish food in his hand, sighed helplessly and looked at Huang Shuang and said: "You must know, grandfather, I have come to this day, relying on these pairs of eyes, turning evil into good fortune, but since my debut at a young age, this is the first and only time, I have to admit that I have lost my eyes!" ”

Huang Shuang was quite shocked, Huang Yingyun threw the fish food in his hand into the small blue and white porcelain Fuzi bowl, and casually threw the bowl into the water.

Huang Yingyun put his hands behind his back and said: "This kid is not simple, at that time, I definitely didn't expect that today's hairy boy would become the world-famous Ninghou!" ”

Huang Shuang frowned tightly when he heard this, Huang Yingyun turned around and glanced at him, patted him on the shoulder and said: "There are people outside the world, although this person is young, he has a very heavy mind, most of the young and deep people are stable and down-to-earth, but the kid of the Jia family deliberately pretends to be crazy and stupid, and he is obviously a person who is very deep in the city!" ”

Huang Yingyun squinted his eyes slightly and said: "It proves that this person has a deep mind, a very deep city, but also a great ambition!" ”

Huang Yingyun said and walked outside the pavilion with Huang Shuang: "Because of this, I began to pay attention to this person, whether it is the battle of Sanshan Fort, where the Jia family kid became famous in World War I, or the interesting military chess deduction in the Korean Mansion, looking at the number of soldiers used by this person, you can know what kind of person this person is!" ”

Huang Yingyun continued: "I have observed a lot of generals' ways of using troops, to deal with generals, we have to understand how he is used to using soldiers, which contains his way of life and his thoughts, and Jia Jing's way of using troops is very simple and extraordinary, have you studied it?" ”

Huang Shuang shook his head and said, "Please give my grandfather advice." Huang Yingyun put his hands in his sleeves and said: "I will ask someone to send those descriptions to your room in a while, you have to study it carefully, and it will definitely be useful to deal with him in the future." ”

Huang Shuang bowed and said yes, and Huang Yingyun continued: "Jia Jing's use of soldiers, although on the surface is dangerous, he likes to use surprise attacks, but as long as you observe carefully, you will find that Jia Jing's use of soldiers is extremely down-to-earth and calm, never drags mud and water and has any superfluous movements, likes to be patient, and before he finds the right time, he will always lie dormant or even show weakness and the enemy!" ”

"And as long as he grasps a fatal weakness and finds your mistake, then he will be extremely quick and decisive, and he must be killed with one blow!"

Huang Shuang's whole body suddenly had some hairs that exploded slightly, Huang Yingyun sighed and said: "And he never looks at the price when he uses soldiers, even if our army's 20,000 people are all exhausted, as long as the goal can be achieved, as long as it can make you suffer, it is a victory, and even sacrifice yourself for this!" ”

Huang Yingyun looked at Huang Shuang and said: "So what you said is right, according to Jia Jing's temperament, he will not meddle in the affairs of Yangzhou Mansion casually, that's just that he thinks he is not sure, and as long as he seizes an opportunity and is sure to completely solve the problem of Yangzhou Mansion, then he will make a decisive move!" ”

Huang Shuang gasped and looked at Huang Yingyun in shock and said, "So, grandfather, what do you mean ............"

Huang Yingyun sighed, his eyes flashed and said: "Jia Jing will not make any moves, at least we will never see any moves, and there is only one way to accurately know Jia Jing's attitude towards Yangzhou, when Jia Jing started to act against the salt merchants, when is he going to meddle in Yangzhou's affairs, and this action is definitely not a small fight............

Huang Shuang suddenly felt a little upset in his heart when he heard this, who can hold this? Are you either not moving, or moving and going straight to the whole big one? If you don't prevent it at all, who can hold you back from doing this?

Huang Shuang was suddenly a little entangled: "Then grandfather, is it necessary for us to meet Jia Jing?" ”

Huang Yingyun glanced at Huang Shuang and said, "Go, why don't you go?" But you're wrong about this, do you think you know the purpose of inviting Jia Jing, and you can go alone? ”

Huang Yingyun looked at Huang Shuang's puzzled expression and sighed helplessly: "Go find your father, he will tell you, the old man is going to rest." When Huang Shuang heard this, he nodded in a daze, and then bowed down to send Huang Yingyun away, and went directly to the front to find his father Huang Zhiqi.

When he got to the front, the housekeeper said that his father Huang Zhiqi had just gone out, and Huang Shuang ran out in a hurry, just as Huang Zhiqi got into the car, and after seeing Huang Shuang, he smiled and said, "Shuang'er? Why aren't you in school? ”

Huang Shuang panted and shook his head and said, "Go back to my father, I have something to do today, I don't need to go, that's it, my grandfather, he asked me to ................"

Huang Shuang told what had happened, Huang Zhiqi couldn't help but smile and then said: "Get in the car, my father is going to the port to meet Ning Hou." ”

Huang Shuang was stunned when he heard this, but he hurriedly got into the car first and went to Huang Zhiqi's side, and Huang Zhiqi explained with a smile: "Although you have been trained by your grandfather a little interesting, but in the end you are inexperienced and a little timid." ”

Huang Shuang hurriedly bowed slightly and said, "Please also ask my father for advice." Huang Zhiqi smiled: "Even if you know that people are not coming for you, but you can't be respectful to others just because they don't beat you?" ”

Huang Shuang was stunned for a moment, Huang Zhiqi shook his head with a smile and said: "If the eight major salt merchants have discussed it and no one will greet them, then naturally it doesn't matter if you go or not, but as long as one of them goes, then the other seven will not give face to Ninghou!" ”

Huang Shuang suddenly realized when he heard this, Huang Zhiqi smiled: "So, it's not strange to have many people, don't hold it up to anyone, in front of others, what are the eight major salt merchants and not the eight major salt merchants, let's do business, if you can make money safely and steadily by selling a smile, why not?" ”

Huang Zhiqi said and patted Huang Shuang's palm with a smile and said: "In the eyes of businessmen, there is no face, and there are no enemies and friends, what you put in your pocket is the most real!" ”

Huang Shuang frowned slightly and nodded thoughtfully............

At this time, Jia Jing stood at the bow of the ship and looked at the prosperous port in front of him, and Weng Xiuming on the side hugged his fists and said: "Ning Hou, the front is Yangzhou!" Jia Jing nodded expressionlessly: "Let's go to the shore." ”

"Yes!"

Jia Jing looked at the scene in front of him that was completely different from his previous life, but he felt a little worried in his heart, Yangzhou, isn't that the territory of his possible future father-in-law Lin Ruhai...............
